Dr. Visit

I went to the perinatal (the correct spelling) doctor's office today and had some good news and some bad news. The bad news is I have to give myself blood thinner (hepbrin) shots until 6 weeks after the baby is born. The good news is that they aren't as expensive or as painful as originally expected. The other good point is that I won't have to worry throughout the pregnancy if I or the baby have a blood clot. They are completely safe for the baby, which was a big concern for us. The doctor reassured us many times that there is no side effects to the baby. They also said that I would have a few more ultrasounds to make sure the baby is growing. Having more ultrasounds is always a good thing.
Cute story about Andrew. Yesterday we were leaving the consignment sale and driving by the airport. Andrew asked if we were going to see planes. I said yes we will see a few planes. His reply took me by surprise, he said 'That's cool mommy.' For the briefest moment we had a conversation. Now that's cool.
